CHRISTINE HERRMANN
DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT
Christine Herrmann became USCRI’s Director of Development in the summer of 2025, taking on the role as the organization faced widespread federal funding rescissions. The position allows her to lead a dedicated team of fundraisers while staying emotionally connected to her immigrant ancestors. Replacing government funding with new sources of support may seem like an immense job, but people are being incredibly generous in helping immigrants and refugees who want to be New Americans and live better lives.
Christine has worked in the nonprofit world for 20+ years at organizations like Physicians for Social Responsibility, National Academies of the Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, the Red Cross and National Association for the Education of Young Children. Her work has focused on development, strategic growth, board/staff engagement and advocacy. Throughout her career, she has been inspired by colleagues striving for a better world and has connected with donors who share that passion and purpose. Some have dedicated their lives to confronting climate change and ending the threat of nuclear weapons. Others dream of a world where everyone has food, shelter, and the chance of a great education beginning before birth. All of them share a belief in seeing goodness beyond color or ethnicity.
She has served as president of the Friends of SW DC Public Library, as a board member of Maine Writers & Publishers Alliance, and as a mentor to middle school girls through Higher Achievement.
Christine received her BA in International Relations from San Francisco State University. She is a writer and artist in her spare time.
